Alert

Practice social distancing even when outdoors.

Most State Parks are open.

Advanced reservations required; face coverings recommended; gathering of groups larger than ten people are not allowed, except for families or people living in the same household; maintain six-foot social distancing. Visitors should check the Texas State Parks Alert Map regularly for the latest status of parks.

Bring your own, or rent a kayak or paddleboard; you can reserve your rental up to one week in advance from the PaddleEZ website.

Note: Equestrians are only allowed to use the Big Brown Primitive Camping Trail until they reach the bridge. Riders are not allowed to cross the bridge until it is replaced. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Fishing

Fairfield Lake is home to several species of fish. You can reel in a bass, catfish or perch from a boat or the fishing pier. Anglers from all over Texas join in tournaments or enjoy the open water in a canoe or kayak. Fishing is best in early spring and into the summer. Bring your fishing pole and stay awhile!
